I don't think we can judge either way.  If Alice implements QPACK and
Bob implement reprioritization, results will vary based on their level
of competence.  The degree of burden will also vary for each
particular implementation.  Speaking for lsquic, reprioritization
had to [1] touch more code and was much more tightly coupled than
QPACK; on the other had, QPACK encoder logic was a lot more code.

At a higher level, I don't understand the concern with complexity.
If you look up "complexity" in the dictionary, you will see

    complexity (n), see QUIC.
